Strictly speaking, with the tip of the
tongue n can't really taste at all. If
you put a small drop of honey or oil of
bitter almonds on that part of the mouth
you will find, no doubt to your great sur
prise, that it produces no effect of any
sort; you only taste it when it begins
slowly to diffuse itself and reaches the
true tasting region in the middle distance.
But if you put a little cayenne or mus
tard on the same part you will find that
it bites you immediately-the experiment
should be tried sparingly-while if you
put it down lower in the mouth you will
swallow it almost without noticing the
pungency of the stimulant. The reason
is that the Zip of the tongue is supplied
only with the nerves which are really
nerves of touch, not nerves of taste
proper-they belong to a totally different
main branch, and they go TO a different
center in the brain, together with the
very similar threads which supply the
nerve of smell for mustard and pepper.
That is why the smell and taste of these
pungent substances are so much alike, as
everybody must have noticed n good sniff
at a mustard pot producing almost the
same irritating effects as an incautious
mouthful.- Boston Journal.

In Japan Children's shoes are made of
blocks of wood secured with cords. The
stocking resembles a mitten, having a
separate place for the great toe, As these
shoes are lifted only by the toes. the
heels make a rafting sound as their own
ers walk. which is quite stunning in a
crowd. They are not worn in the house,
as they would iniure the soft straw mats
on the floor. You leave your shoesSat
the door. Every house is built with refer
ence to the number of mats required for
the floors, each room having from eight
to sixteen, and in taking lodgings you
pay so much for a mat. They think il
~extravagant in us to require a whole
room to ourselves.
The Japanese shoe gives perfect free
dom to the foot. The beauty of the hu,
man foot is only seen in the Japanese.
They have no corns, no %ingrowing nails,
no distorted joints. Dur toes are cramped
until they are deformed and are in danger
Of extinction. They nave the full use of
their toes, and to them they are almost
like fingers. Nearly every mechanic
makes use of his toes in holding his work.
Every toe is fully developed. Their shoes
cost one penny and last six months

One of our attorneys tells n story of a
money lender he nee knew living in Den
mark. Being approached on a certain oc-
Casion for money he tOld the borrower to
step into his room and he would get it out
of his safe and let him have the sum
wanted. As the borrower went in and
took a seat he saw no safe there, but the
money lender went to an old Bible and,
after turning over the leaves awhile, he
found the amour needed.
"What, sirl do you call that a safe?"
asked the borrower.
Wall, it amt exactly safe again fire,
but it's safe again the family" said the
money ender.-Lewiston Journal.

1t is false economy to do part of to-mor-
rows work today; living cheaply so that
you can dress well; going to law about
anything you can compromise; to employ
a botch because he doesn't charge much;
sitting in the twilight doing nothing in
order to save oil; buying things you don't
want because they are cheap; marrying
your daughter to an adventurer so as to
have her off your hands; to take. your
money out of the bank and invest it in a
wildcat scheme; taking your boy from
school and allowing him to grow up in
ignorance for the sake of the So a week he

hiaih "oEh ahu Hhhuitihit"
DR.. Oliver Wendell Holmes during the
busy years Of his life, it is said, was ac-
customed to rest his brains by working
with his hands. Under the great library
table was a smaller one, which was a min
iature workshop, fitted with a turning
lathe and tools, with which the poet
made boxes, brackets and toys for his
friends.
Tho little shop moved on a tiny rail
way track in the floor, so that on the ap-
proach of a visitor who could not appre-
ciate ''jimcracks," the doctor could push
the table, tools and all, under the larger
n entirely out of sight.
The majority of brain workers have
had some pursuit, taste Oh handicraft
which relieved the tension on the brain
of steady application in one direction.
Sometimes, as in the Case of Mr.. Glad
stones tree %chopping or Mr.. Hawthorne's
potato digging, it was severe physical ex-
ertion that gave rest to the mind, but
oftener it was the employment of the fin
gers and brain in some lighter work than
the daily craft. Hans Andersen cut pa
per figures with marvellous skill, one of
the great Russian novelists makes clay
pipes of every shape, and m of the most
eminent clergymen in this country dab
bles in chemistry, and has nearly blown
up his family on several occasions.
Parents and teachers are often annoyed
by the persistent devotion of boys to some
pursuit which Can never serve them as a
means of livelihood, a taste for drawing,
music or animals! Keep 1t in its place
and you have provided a hobby which
may serve as o safety valve for an over
taxed brain or nervous system. The
young man with a regular occupation
and a taste which gives him rest and
pleasure enters life not with one staff. but
with two.-Youth's Communion.

A rheatre without FootlIghts.

Brussels is to have a theatre without
footlights, in accordance with the plans of
M. Bees, the designer of the new Flemish
theatre there. He believes that the thick
stratum of heated air through which the
voices of the actors have to pass to reach
the audience obstructs and deadens the
sound For the footlights he has substi-
tuted n triple range of gas lights behind
the orchestra. The new system was test
ed, and pronounced a decided improve
ment on that now in use.-New York

WV. Reed, druggist, of Winchester,

quit using it. She feels she owes her life

The symptoms of biliousness are unhap-
PLY too well known. They differ in diff
fercnt individuals to some extent. A bill.
ious. mar is seldom a breakfast eater.
Too frequently, alas, he has an excellent
appetite for liquids but none for solids of
a morning. His tongue will hardly bear
inspection at n time; if it is not white
and furred, it is rough. at all events.
The digestive system is wholly out OF
order and Diarrhea or Constipation may
be a symptom or the two may alternate.
There are often Hemmorrhoids or ever
loss of blood. There may be giddiness
and often headache and acidity or latu-
lence and tenderness in the pit of the
stomach. To correct all this if not effect
a cure try Green's august Flower, it costs
but a trife and thousands attest its efficacy.

If we could lift the veil which hides
The inner shrine where soul abides-
Would life seem nobler, or more trueH
II we could trace each circle round,
And see as angels see, and know
As he from whom life's currents flow,
Would hearts be happier for truth foundi
Should we find more to love, or less

Could we discern the utmost reach
